I used waxoyl for years on classics albeit in cavities; as a general chassis or underbody wax protectant it isn't particularly durable on its own. It helps to preserve the life of older underseal, by keeping it supple as long as it's sound. However, old underseal on its own can crack or lift, and is worse than no underseal at all as moisture penetrates, gets trapped resulting corrosion under seemingly sound underseal.
However, I too have progressed to Bilt Hamber products, which in my opinion and experience are far superior to any 'named' waxoyl and similar rust prevention wax. They have different formulations for under body and chassis, cavities etc. Bilt Hamber dries to a usuable consistancy a lot faster than Waxoyl, and is less prone to dripping all over the floor after application.
Thumbs up from me for Bilt Hamber products without question.

yes bilt hamber stuff is very good.
used plenty of the deox-c powder over the years and the epoxy twopart black.
must agree too regarding the wayoyl. if youre not totally filthy when youve done then youre not doing it right !

Well I'm going to keep an eye on this stuff or something similar as a reasonable priced solution but as always nice to see comments

Bilt Hamber products are cheaper direct from their website rather than buying off Ebay and the like. Free postage as well over a (not too expensive) spend.

Lanolin extracted underbody and marine treatments have been used in the U.S for decades. Lanoguard is a pukka product, but it's not a one off treatment, as it's supposed to be redone once a year, and not where it will  be exposed to sunlight. I've used Bilt Hamber on two of the Omegas and the VXR8 was done professionally with the same. Omega No3 was going to get the BH treatment and being that it's rust free I thought about the Lanoguard, but the downside is that it'll have to be done every year and I might just not fancy topping it up year on year.....may well put it into Rustbusters and be done with it .
